ANALYSIS CommandIn addition to parallel computing, the PROCESSORS option can be usedto specify that random starts be distributed across processors using theSTARTS setting as follows:PROCESSORS = 8 (STARTS);where eight processors will be used in the analysis for parallelcomputations and the random starts will be distributed across the eightprocessors. The STARTS setting is available with TYPE=MIXTUREwhen the STARTS option is used.When the random starts are distributed across the processors, thememory limit of the system is divided by the number of processors.Computations will be slower when the memory used by all processorsexceeds the memory limit. In such cases, using only the regularparallelized computing is preferable. The STARTS setting is notrecommended for analyses where the number of integration points isgreater than 500.565
